Not Fade Away

Sometimes I dream about losing our love
And it sits me straight up in my bed
Wonderin' how to take back every bad word I've said
And it scares me enough waking up with the fear
Without facing the real thing someday
Oh, if I ever lost you I'd probably just fade away


And if I were losin' you
If I were facin' the sound of your footsteps
If I were losin' you
I'd be losin' everything


People hold on to their last ounce of hope
Like it somehow might slip through their hands
Fear loosens their grip when they're facing that lonely heart land
To feel cheated for life is a hard one to fight
To be labeled a loser so cruel
But if I don't try I'll surely be labeled a fool


And if I were losin' you
If I were facin' the sound of your footsteps
If I were losin' you
I'd be losin' everything


Well, I've heard it before, can't bear to hear it again
Though I'll always remember the sound
Of the last lonely teardrop
That quietly fell to the ground


And if I were losin' you
If I were facin' the sound of your footsteps
If I were losin' you
I'd be losin' everything
If I were losin' you
I'd be losin' everything
